prolly cuz when Nintendo made it, you had to have connectivity with your shoe lace. Then when Sony made the idea they listened to people and made it with online support.

It's funny how that wish has changed over the years. First it was "A GameCube Pokémon game", then "An online Pokémon game" and now it's "An online Pokémon game with voice chat".

lol. Well I wouldn't want a gamecube game in the next generation, and I wouldn't want an online game without voicechat because it ****ing rocks with voice chat. So there better be an online voice chat pokemon game@!!!!!!!!! RPG, that is.

The new PSM has PS3 info.

* The PS3 has features that a PC just can't simulate - mostly graphical features.
* They arn't exagerating like they did with Toy Story graphics.
* EA will have something to illustrate the PS3 the minute Sony shows the hardware; people might think PS3 Madden will be the new benchmark for visuals.
* The PS3 is still on a 2006 U.S. release schedule.
* High capacity Memory Sticks have been discussed for PS3.
* PS3 controllers will be different, but the ports will be backwards compatible.
* It will have an advanced EyeToy built-in that can "see" in the 3D and do facial recognition, as well as be able to load games based on who it sees sitting in front of it.
* Very possible there could be playable PS3 games at E3.

Coolness.

Now THAT sounds more like gimmick.
Not that I'm against it, but come on, IF you want the system to load a game for you, you'd want to TELL him that.
Or does it also read your mood? If you smile, it loads a cute platformer. If you look mad, it loads Tekken 5....

I wonder how they're gonna build the EyeToy in... in the console itself? Isn't that unpractical?

[TheGame]

I'm pretty sure they will make it to where you can load manually or by using that feature. I think Eye Toy being built in can't hurt... I'd love to see my mug in a sports game

they are not going to build in a camera in the console, but i bet they put a microphone and camera in the controller....

my console is tucked under my tv, so if they put it in the console, it's going to suck.

They will have a camera and a microphone though,

Nintendo is going to actually put you back into the game, 3d platformer, with you as the main character... next generation is going to be a fun one indeed... Besides, I'm sick of the same old crap....halo 2 is identical to halo 1.... people will eventually get sick of buying that stuff.

think of games more like Police 911 at the arcades, but with free roaming environments, and microphone support...



this is the reason reality tv shows are so popular, people are sick of sitcoms about the same crap... I hate reality tv, but i'm just proving a point.

personally, i like the movies that are different, Big fish, Sunshin of the spotless mind, not the same lame crap.

Very true, hence the 'controller change' I just hope the controller isnt changed too drastically.

...Besides, I'm sick of the same old crap....halo 2 is identical to halo 1.... people will eventually get sick of buying that stuff.

Also true, which is another of my main reasons for FPS gaming on PC's and why consoles need hard drives for such.
The ability for mods add's more then just new multiplayer modes..... It brings out the CREATIVE side of ordinary people doing it not for money, but for the love of playing something fresh.

I have played so many games that i find original that were just free mods on another game. Eventually thoes start up copies that others sell.
Counter Strike was totally original when it came out as a mod on the Quake engine. its been copied many times since in games like Socom. but when it was made, it wasnt hyped up to be the greatest thing ever, you didnt have to go reserve it for the rush on the holliday season, you didnt have to lay down your wallet to play it. you simply logged on and downloaded it.

I love the mod community on games, original idea's done for gameplay, not money.

Hense why i want consoles to have hard drives, They NEED this. and the game develoeprs need to release tools to help people make these mods for console games like PC games do. Not only do you get an endless flow of creative idea's. its such a great way to help people get into the industry and make a career out of developing games.

I seirously hurt some of my leg muscles playing that game awhile pack. I was seirously limping around for a few days.

Not that the game wasnt fun, it was a damn riot, but my legs just werent ready for all that up-down action...

I want a helmet or pair of goggles that I can wear so I can be completley immersed within the game. Will this be guaranteed to me next generation?

[Joeiss]

is it just me, or are a large majority of GM's posts useless?

Anyways, I can't wait to see what Madden will look like on the next generation consoles, and if I can stick my face in the game in a create-a-player option, that will just be amazing. I would also put pictures of my friends and stuff. That would be super cool.

i can garentee you some goggles to wear while you play games. $200 up front, no refunds.
